Changes in levels of EPI, corticosterone, and NGF in rats in response to induced asthma and KTR treatment. The levels of EPI, corticosterone, and NGF in rats (in vivo: (a), (b), and (c), resp.) and the level of EPI in cultured AMCC supernatant (in vitro: (d)) were detected by ELISA. The values are presented as mean ± SD (in vivo: , in vitro: ). *indicates significant difference compared to the control group (); ▲indicates significant difference between KTR-treatment and asthma groups ().
